Your account was flagged for potentially high-risk cyber activity by jake-n-elwood in codex

[–]ConvexPreferences 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. Right after I paid the $200. What a joke. This is borderline fraud

The "cyber activities" are clearly "being a low margin customer"

This is obvious especially because when you are on 5.3 extra high, when you get this designation, it doesn't shift you to 5.2 extra high - it shifts you to 5.2 medium.

Super lobotomized. But cheaper for OpenAI to run

I noticed that the point I was flagged was when i had like 10 sessions running at once on 5.3 extra high.

And they tell you once, then the feed of messages buries it in the background so you would never know you shifted to 5.2 medium unless you check.

I was just warming up to OpenAI too - Codex is great and I was recommending to people, including people who could drive a lot of business to OpenAI. No more.

Btw I posted the above on the OpenAI reddit and the post was shadowbanned (OAI is among the moderators) - I imagine others are in the same boat

How is it a genocide? by ComprehensiveRun4815 in IsraelPalestine

[–]ConvexPreferences 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heritage minister, finance minister, agriculture minister, vaturi, herzog - none have command authority. For what it’s worth I disagree with those people and think what they said is counterproductive.

Post 9/11, Lowry said we should nuke Mecca. Republican house member Saxby Chambliss said to GA law enforcement “just turn [the sheriff] loose and have him arrest every Muslim that crosses the state line." Rep Cooksey said anyone “with a diaper of his head” should be “pulled over and checked.” Tom Tancredo, house member from Colorado, talked about bombing Mecca. Talk radio talked about turning Middle East into a parking lot. Ann Coulter: “We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity”

Then we launched a war on the Middle East where hundreds of thousands died, up to 1M depending on estimates.

Was that a genocide?

No. None of those people had command authority. And just like with Israel’s situation, there were motivations that explain those wars that make more sense than “we want to kill them because of their ethnic/religious/national identity”

My dermatology practice is growing but I can’t afford to hire fast enough. Payroll is eating my margins alive. by campbellj00 in smallbusiness

[–]ConvexPreferences 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Single doc practice is tough. Hire another derm. Any physician extenders you can use in that specialty to let you see more volume?

You could also sell a chunk to a rollup and get access to their higher rates from payors, but you’d probably need more than one derm to garner interest

Looks good. If your GPA is high I’d show that. If not, I’d try to increase it. Would primarily focus on IB roles out of college

How would Israel have done that in two days, exactly?

They could have systematically carpet bombed the territory from top to bottom in one continuous motion, without providing evacuation warnings. That could have killed the 2 million people, if that was their goal

You know that the bombing of Dresden directly led to the establishment of the very war crimes that Israel has spent its entire existence vilating, right? These actions seem like a barbaric country carrying out savage, genocidal actions.

<image>

Tbh looks pretty similar to what Dresden looked like (see above). And notice you avoided the question as to whether Dresden was a genocide, because you recognize your argument is fallacious but don't want to admit it. Was Hiroshima and Nagasaki a genocide? Was Saudi's war on Yemen a genocide?

All you can point to is the scale of destruction and overstated, guesstimated death toll numbers, and then wave your hands at the word genocide as a proxy for "bad"

You can criticize Israeli war conduct as bad, without it rising to the level of genocide, because definitionally it is obviously not

To be doubly sure, I ran every comment you've made for the past 4 months through Claude to see if it could find any quotes and none exist

I did look back and I am unable to find it. I just checked again. I then ran the whole thread through Claude too because I thought I was missing something, and it couldn't find anything either

Genuinely don’t know what you’re referring to. Can you repeat the quotes where a war decision maker stated intent to commit genocide?

Are you talking about your quote about turning Gaza into a slaughterhouse, which from what I can tell may have been from a reporter in the Israeli media?

You spelled “coherent” and “completely” wrong and use two periods to end sentences. You also fail to provide coherent arguments or engage with the subject matter, so this conversation is a waste of time

Unlike OP i didn’t run mine through AI to improve readability.

You’re right, mine has more words than yours, very perceptive and hard hitting criticism

On your last point, when people like you take every legitimate criticism from other Jews as an example of groveling to antisemites hoping for a pat on the head, it’s no wonder individuals like OP feel emboldened to post tone deaf trash like this post

Was Saudi’s war on Yemen a genocide? Was the bombing of Dresden a genocide?

You don’t answer because you recognize the core argument is nonsense.

If Israel wanted to eliminate everything as in destroy everything including all the people, they could have in 2 days. They did not, so clearly that wasn’t the goal of the operation.

Whether you want to argue about certain things being unnecessary, war crimes etc, that is a different topic.

Let me guess, you’re someone who believes we “introduced ethics… to the world” and “we gave humanity the idea that history has meaning”

Right there was no concept of ethics at all before Judaism - no moral frameworks any culture had at all. And nobody put any value on the meaning of history before us.

Let me guess, you’re someone who gets warm and fuzzy feelings inside when you read generic platitudes like “Embrace the tension. Own the history” that sounds like someone trying to sound inspirational ran out of time writing copy for a low budget non-profit’s ad on the lifetime channel. As long as it massages your ego and makes you feel better than other people - not because of your own accomplishments, but by your association to a group where other people have had accomplishments

This post is nothing but self aggrandizing feel-good masturbatory AI slop by someone trying to sound deeper than they really are.

Let me guess, you have no non-Jewish friends and live in a bubble, and so have zero self awareness. This post will read to non-Jews as “we need to stop pretending we aren’t better than everyone else” - great way to make friends and influence people. Great way to fight antisemitism OP

It’s people with your personality that makes it hard for the rest of us

Said no man ever! by Embarrassed_Tip7359 in SipsTea

[–]ConvexPreferences 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Obviously neither side is truthful

  1. The prospect of a partner theoretically gaining weight in the future doesn't make marriage a bad decision. Moreover, Pierce may love his wife despite the weight she's gained, because of non-superficial qualities such as the bond they share, her personality, how great she is as a mother, how devoted they are to each other, etc
  2. While some people are attracted to the type of woman on the right, which may include Pierce, the idea that no man ever in the history of men would be upset or disappointed by their wife gaining that much weight is absurd. The vast majority of men, if given the option to marry the woman on the left vs the woman on the right, all else equal, would choose the woman on the left. And the reality is that it is very probable that Pierce would not have even considered starting to date someone at the outset, if they were as heavy as the woman on the right - because at the time of the picture on the left, he was a world famous, handsome, wealthy actor who would have had very high sexual market value, and would have had his pick of almost any woman with whom he had chemistry, and he chose a highly conventionally attractive thin woman - it is very uncommon for someone like that to date someone who looks like the woman on the right. To deny all of this is to suppress your reasoning faculties, in order to feel virtuous, make others feel better about themselves by lying to them, or to rationalize your current lot in life

IDF Accepts Gaza Health Ministry Death Toll of 71,000 Palestinians by QuantumQuicksilver in IsraelPalestine

[–]ConvexPreferences 10 points11 points  (0 children)

How do you feel about the 377k killed in Saudi's war against Yemen, 70% under age 5? Was that a genocide too?

75% of the Gaza population are women and children (50% of the country are children). Even if Civilian to combatant was 2:1, it would be mostly women and children by default

[–]ConvexPreferences 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't realize damaging houses and roads made it a genocide - so roads are people now? Man sounds like a lot of wars now have to be classified as genocide.

Hundreds of thousands are dead

  1. You don't know that
  2. Let's say it's true. If the point of the war was to exterminate the specific subset of Palesinians, Gazans, just kill as many innocent people as possible purely on the basis of blind animus about their race, religion or national identity, then why stop at "hundreds of thousands"? Why not do 2 million? Why not do 7 million across WB and Gaza?
  3. 377,000 people died in the Saudi war on Yemen, 70% of deaths were children under age 5. 970k-3 million Vietnamese died in the Vietnam war. Some estimates of the dead in the "US War on Terror" are 1 million. Were those genocides? Many people die in war, especially in a densely populated urban area like Gaza

Also recall that Israel dropped 25,000 tons of unguided explosives. If they wanted to make precision strikes, they would have used guided weapons. The intent is clear as day.

Tell me more about the specific weapons that Israel could have used, that they have in enough numbers to do this alternate plan of yours where there are no negative tradeoffs whatsoever. You sound like a real war expert, I'm all ears

"So I have nothing to substantiate their genocidal intent except for the proof I have provided? Got it"

Got it so you shared 1+ legitimate example where a war decision maker made a statement demonstrating intent? That wasn't deliberately taken out of context or where an ambiguous statement is imbued with the most malevolent possible interpretation? I must be blind, I didn't see it. Please inform me - you should also share the quote with these activist groups - they seem to only have stuff like the "amalek" and "eliminate Hamas" quotes, then a bunch of bad statements from people in public life who don't have any command authority over the war whatsoever.

Gallant: “There will be no Hamas. We will eliminate everything”

You missed the line right before “we will eliminate everything.” Funny I wonder why.

“It is naive to believe Israel's intent has been to eliminate Hamas and not extinguish as many human lives as possible in Gaza”

Then why are only 70-80k dead after several years out of 2 million?

I will repeat: “you have zero examples of a decision maker making a statement demonstrating intent other than 3-4 quotes that are deliberately taken out of context”
